Fellow Tarnished, after countless hours in the Lands Between – bosses buried, the game finished more times than you’d admit out loud – you can hit a strange wall. Not a difficulty wall. An expectation wall. You become a victim of your own standards, and the frustration lands harder than anything Malenia ever threw at...

Recently I thought about an Elden Ring progression build that would start with the Icerind Hatchet and switch to the Zamor Curved Sword later on. I wanted to find out if the Icerind Hatchet still gives you the shiver of the early days – well, kind of… In case you don’t know: The Bofrostmann is...

FromSoftware posted twelve dark seconds of Siofra and the internet decided a Godwyn DLC was coming. I don’t think it is. What convinced me isn’t in the cave or the caption, it’s the PEGI badge burned into the corner of the video. What Actually Happened On July 31, the official Elden Ring account put up...

Bloodhound's Fang. Blasphemous Blade. Moonveil. You know them, and so does every third co-op summon outside a boss fog gate. But the Lands Between hides weapons no chest will ever hand you - the kind you farm off enemies at 2% a kill. Here are ten worth the grind.

FromSoftware finally published the final stat sheets for the two classes arriving with the Tarnished Pack, and the numbers tell a different story than the marketing does. One of them isn’t the class everyone thinks it is. What Actually Dropped On July 23, FromSoftware posted the finished stat spreads for the Heavy Knight and the...

In a previous post I explained why learning to parry is a game changer and suggested a run with the Bandit starter class to practice it. Well, I took my own advice… The recipe from that post: roll a fresh Bandit, Buckler in hand, Great Knife on the hip, cash in some early runes (sleeping...

Four Tarnished walk into the Lands Between and decide to punch every single boss in the face. That’s the premise, that’s the energy, and that’s exactly what went down at Summer Games Done Quick 2026. What Is SGDQ? If you’re not already familiar with Games Done Quick, here’s the quick version: SGDQ is a week-long...

Fellow Tarnished, let me explain why learning to parry is a game changer in Elden Ring. And no, it’s not just about adding a slick new move to your arsenal (although that’s a nice bonus). It’s about how it completely changes the way you look at the game. I’ve spent way too many hours in...

The part of Caelid where even Caelid is scared of itself! You made it. You’ve survived the Swamp, outwitted Sellia’s sorcerers, and watched Radahn crater into the Wailing Dunes like a blazing comet. You’ve done Caelid. Pat yourself on the back. Now forget all of that, because we’re heading north into the Dragonbarrow, where the...
